A few months ago I was speaking to a guy at a trackday who had taken his 535D to DMS for them to chip it, and who was very happy with the work they'd done. The amount he said it cost seems to be a lot lower than the prices quoted on here (£1k).

I never caught the guys name, but he was a fellow PHer. I was wondering if there are deals to be had?

PM's gratefully received if you'd prefer not to post on the forum.
Yes there are deals to be had, call Mike at DMS and tell him you are a Pher and he'll give you a good price.

Jules.

Thanks Jules smile

Just incidentally, if anybody else in Cheshire is thinking of having their car mapped, I'm sure we could get a good price if we were all to group together...

Hi Andy,

Not sure if DMS go down the group remap route but they will happily visit your home / place of work to carry out the work.

Best bet if you want to join a group buy is to call Simon at Emaps, if he hasn't got one running in the north then again as per DMS he will visit your home to do the work, price wise he is a bit cheaper than DMS.

Jules.

If you join bmwland.co.uk as a member (£10) then you have access to a code to give you 25% off the price if you go to their base or 10% off if they come to you.

Thanks Paul.

The figure I was quoted was a lot less than 25% off confused

Hmm...I'm just hoping the guy sees this topic smile

Are you the same Andy M that used to frequent ukmkivs forum ?

I've got a 335d and am also considering a remap, having moved from VAG cars I'm surprised at how little info is available, the car is pretty damn good as standard but an't help but wonder what it would be like mapped

Do a search for DMS, E-Maps, Shires Performance and Evolve, all will offer to remap your 335d and all have good results with satisfied customers.

Sorry, that wasn't me, though I do own a mk4 smile

How many would be interested in a 'group buy' if we could get a lower price?

If you DMS a 335d it's faster than an Audi RS6.

Craig,

Are you still up for a run off between a 335d, M3 (E46, E92, CSL) and for the fun of it your RS6 at the next VMax? Would help put paid to all the daft commnts on these threads.

Jules.

Excellent. I am sure that the 3200AC will do itself justice in that line up....

ha I doubt it, my 3200 was rubbish at vmax although on a horrifically rainy day I did manage a 360 at the end of the straight at about 90mph!

You are probably right but it would be just about be competitive, I was quite impressed with the 3200GT's I test drove a couple or so of years back when toying with buying one of them.

Anyway better stop there before we get in trouble for going OT.

I'll keep my eyes peeled for the next VMax
